Sage Gold Provides Update on Mineral Production at Clavos Mine

Sage Gold Inc. is pleased to announce that it has received confirmation from McEwen Mining Inc. that mineralized material processed from the first bulk sample mill run at the Stock Mill in Timmins, located 10 km from the Clavos Mine, has yielded approximately 476 ounces of gold.

Nigel Lees, President and Chief Executive Officer of Sage Gold commented, "This is a major milestone for the Company. Within the past 12 months we have completed the following;

Raised over $14 million in capital including financing Clavos to production;

Put in place a life of mine Custom Milling agreement;

Dewatered and rehabilitated 90% of the existing 7 km of mine workings;

Surface drilled the "gap" between the Main Zone and the 960 Zone, found an extension to hangingwall zone to the west of the mine workings and discovered a new sediment zone;

In addition, we are pleased to report that the Clavos Mine complex has also been connected to grid power. The use of diesel gensets as an exclusive source of electrical power on site has presented significant challenges for the Clavos operation and slowed our progress in all areas, including dewatering, drilling and mining.

We plan to continue an active definition and exploration drilling program aimed at updating and increasing the existing mineral resource estimate. We also expect to increase our mining rates and ship higher grade mineralized material mined from stopes in addition to lower-grade mineralized material from existing broken material left by the previous owners."
